Hello. Newb here for MHF2. HR2, and 5* Elder Quest.

I been using Rathian blademaster armour for 3/4 of the game now because it has the most armour and has quite alot of benefit including psychic vision and poison immunity. So yesterday decided to experiment other armour....like Khezu Armour. Khezu Armour set got 20 Thunder resistance...whereas Rathian has -10/-20 ...can't remember.

So i try experimenting fighting Khezu...but was surprised that my Khezu armour is damn useless against his electrical attacks! I was expecting 20 thunder resistance to mean i receive little to no damage but instead get 40% my life down. For Rathian armour...i receive only about 15% damage.

How does the resistance work? It seems to me it doesn't really mattter and i should just look at the armour value.

Well for that case i think that's cause blango armour is very little defence compared to Rathian.

Oh...i gonna go digital mall now and hopefully can find the wifi dongle recommended by everyone GW-US5Mini2G (damn long name) so i can start Xlink kai hunting.

my xtag is "WoLF-[x]"
